Colloquio
Submitted resume and received a no email and the next day i received an email asking me to proceed with the interview by completing a design. They ask you to design the homepage for a hypothetical company and some ads and tshirt design. They provide you with a lengthy copy to incorporate into the homepage and a few images. I submitted the work which took about a week to complete. I received an email the next day that said they unfortunately decided to not go ahead with the interview, and that they cannot provide any feedback. A very bad practice considering they are taking so much of an applicants time. I was very disheartened with the way they do their hiring and do not provide anything in return what so ever and they expect so much from you. Not even Google or Facebook act like this and they seem like they think they are them. Shame!

It was the most disconnected application I've submitted. I can't remember the initial application but a few days later I received the email about doing a sample exercise. You log in and they have some instructions on what to do. But it's very vague, they say you can change anything they require, don't copy, etc. The exercise is a lot of work overall, a homepage design, 2 banner ads, and a tshirt. This is becoming the norm for any job it seems but there isn't an indication of how long they expect you to spend or any compensation (which every other job has done). At the end I received an email that they wouldn't move forward but couldn't provide any feedback. I could have been passed by from some technical reason or something they perceived as copying, or they just didn't like it.
Although the idea is to be free of any preconceived judgement, this whole exercise could be avoided by just looking at work submitted. Design work really is an iterative process and I don't think their process captures this.

Applied online for a UX designer position. Strange as there was no need for a resume. Overall process was a bit daunting, yet somewhat refreshing. Would be interested in finding out if this methodology actually works for them.
